Whether we, as Philadelphia Eagles fans, want to admit two things or not, they’re undeniably true. One, players like Brian Dawkins only come around once in a lifetime. That’s why thousands of guys have played in the NFL. That’s why only 318 guys are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame (Dawkins being one of them). Here’s the other thing. After ‘Weapon X’, whether fair or unfair, we as Eagles fans, wanted every safety on this team to look like ‘Dawk’. Enter Mississippi State safety Jonathan Abram.
It’s unfair to put any pressure on him at this point, but man.
